Click Edit to clean up recording
Click the F1 [Edit] button and you will see the message "Make Cut-in and Cut-out points". You are
now in the editing mode. Use the FORWARD, BACK, and PLAY to familiarize yourself with the
recording so that you know exactly where you want the Cut-in (start) and the Cut-out (end) to be.
Go back to the beginning of the song and get ready to press the F1 [I-cut] button. The moment you
come to the part where you want the song to start, click the F1 [I-cut]. The recording is now cut
there and will start at this point if you go BACK to the beginning. If you don't like the Cut-in point
you made, don't worry, you can go back later and try it again. You can also cut it a little shorter if
you need to, but you can't uncut in this screen.
Now do the same for the ending of the song, the Out-cut. Familiarize yourself with the end and
then while it is playing, click F2 [O-cut] at the precise moment you want the song to end. Now that
the song has been edited for the beginning and the end, click on F3 [close] to validate your new
edit.
You will be asked if you want to keep the edit. If you reply with F3 [No], your editing points will be
discarded and the recording untouched. You can then choose to edit it at another time making other
or better Cut-in and Cut-out points.
If you reply F1 [Yes] to validate your edit points, the parts of the recording before the Cut-in and
after the Cut-out will be discarded. Once discarded, the new recording is considered the final
version and you will not be able to retrieve nor re-edit the recording.
You will notice also that if a recording has NOT been made from the FM radio, the "Edit" function
will not appear.
